Notes
You can buy already made tzatziki sauce, but it's always much tastier if you make your own. Grate cucumber and drain it from excess water, then add garlic, dill and Greek yogurt or sour cream. Mix well and use it not only for this recipe, but for others also, because you can store it in a refrigerator for at least 2-4 days.
